The challenges for Indian students pursuing medical degrees in war-torn Ukraine show no signs of abating, as they grapple with increasing hostility from sections of the local population, who perceive India as supporting Russia in the ongoing conflict. The situation has escalated since Ukraine initiated its recent offensive operations in June.

And this was claimed where, exactly...?

Although the article is mostly about how the indian students (of which only 3.5k are currently in Ukraine, per the article) are afraid of bombing and complaining that they can't be transferred to another country, with about a paragraph about (admittedly not good) animosity from Ukrainians.

Animosity likely springing from the fact that India supports Russia.
